Make sure that the physical access to the system is restricted to authorized personnel
only. Place the system in an access control protected area, in order to avoid physical
manipulation.
The operating system includes the latest Windows security patches available at the time
the software image was created. Use the Windows online update functionality or the
corresponding monthly roll-up patches for offline installation to regularly install OS
security updates.
Do not switch off Windows Defender and Windows firewall, and always keep it up to
date.
Do not install additional anti-virus software.
Do not provide system information and sensitive data to persons you do not know unless
you are certain of a person's authority.
Do not send sensitive information over the internet before checking a website's security.
Limit local network access to trusted devices only. Details are described in the following
documents which are available in the online product catalog:

For access through public networks use only the secure (encrypted) communication
channels .
The administrator account provides full administrative privileges and unrestricted access
to the system. Administrative rights enable users to install, update, or remove software,
and to change configuration settings. Furthermore, administrative rights enable users to
directly access and change registry keys and with this to bypass central management and
security settings. Users signed in to the administrator account can traverse firewalls and
remove anti-virus software, which will expose the system to viruses and cyber-attacks.
This can pose a serious risk to the system and data security.
To minimize cybersecurity risks, observe the following:
– Make sure that the administrator account is protected with a complex password
according to the password policy.
– Make sure that only limited number of trusted users has access to the administrator
account.
Due to operation requirements, the system drive must not be encrypted. Without
encryption, the data stored on this drive can be easily accessed and removed. To avoid
data theft or accidental loss of data, make sure that only authorized persons have access
to the system and to the administrator account.
